Mediocre with heart

It's a nicely animated musical to a degree. I feel it's easier to enjoy if you just treat it like a musical rather than a movie as the characters sing every few scenes. What I find compelling was the characters themselves being honest, a little standard but interesting in their own rights. If they spent some time to develop individual characters it would have shown alot better. It's a nice watch and one of the better Netflix originals.
